I didn't have much expectations to begin with but I'm a fan of Griffin Gluck's acting and like Antonia Gentry from Ginny and Georgia, so I was intrigued from the start.
I don't know if the writing was purposely making it as corny as possible, but it was super corny.
A lot of things didn't line up- I know it's technically sci-fi but come on!!! At least MAKE it make sense in regards to time travel!
It wasn't awful & has major potential for it to be good- but by the end I found myself in disbelief and questioned why Antonia and Griffin would accept these roles.
As stated in the title, the best thing about it (IMO) is the awesome early 2000s sound track.

The first thing that comes in mind when you see the synopsis is Totally Killer from last year. Apparently this was written before and its just a coincidence but its impossible to not make the connection.
Set in the early 2000s instead of the 80s, and trying to save a sister she never knew instead of a mom are the differences but the rest is very close.
I personally left high school right around 2003 but in my opinion the movie missed the mark on the time period it try to portray. There is maybe one line that made me smile (mentioning Twitter, Facebook and then MySpace wich had a few great years in the late 2000s but disapeared very fast) but altough they use some stuff wich were still popular at that time like discman or Buffy posters, i never got much of the 2000s vibe. If anything it feels like they trying to portray the late 90s instead.
When it comes to slasher aspects, the movie has very few kills and it almost seem like an afterthought at times. They could had done so much with the mystery killer but it was pretty easy to figure out. The mask once again look pretty similar to Totally Killer and can't say anything was very memorable with this character.
With all of that said, there was other aspect i liked. The whole idea of Lucy (the main character) life pretty much living in the shadow (and dark cloud) of a sister she never knew with parents that could never move on, but then experiencing how it could had been. Bonding with that sister had its moments too.
Im gonna go with a 6 out of 10 because the movie is easy to watch and didn't bored me. But its a movie that would likely get the "not gonna remember it in t-minus 1 day" by Jeremy Jahns.
Certainly worth a watch as its included with your subscription if you enoy this genre. But will not become a cult classic or anything.

Im hoping other reviewers mentioned the same thing.
Because this was the biggest rip off if ive ever seen one. Also why was this serious and dramatic? If youre gonna come up with a ridiculous plot and storyline can we atleast make it fun??
This had zero fun. The best part about time machine plots is seeing past and future selves of everyone and we got about zero of that here...Also the slasher was absolutely predictable. I thought to myself i hope i have this wrong. Cause it would be too obvious if it was indeed the person i was thinking. Lo and behold...it was. -_-
I do however want to take a moment and give a huge shout out to the person who handled the 00s jamz. As a millennial that was probably my favourite thing about this entire movie. Every song that was chosen was an absolute banger!
What should have been a short 90mins movie became the longest one ive ever seen. Time i will never get back. (Unfortunately i dont have that Time Machine to go back to when i didnt watch this)
Verdict? Skip this one and watch Totally Killer on Prime. Guaranteed laughs and fun!

I didn't have high expectations for this film but I really didn't expect it to be so tame. It had potential but it fell short in almost every way. There is almost no blood in this, which is crazy for a slasher movie. I don't think I've ever seen that before. The only blood shown is in the aftermath, there is none actually shown during any of the kills. The kills are pretty boring with nothing original about them. A lot of the outfits and styles used were not how it was back in 2003. It's almost as if they didn't consult someone who was really in school at that time. This would actually be a great film for introducing someone to the genre if they are not a horror fan. This is about as family friendly as a slasher movie gets. There is no blood/gore, sex, or swearing. Anyone accusing this movie of copying "Totally Killer" is wrong because this movie was filmed a whole year before. However, Totally Killer is a far superior movie and I recommend giving that one a watch.
To say that this was ripped off of prime's 'totally killer' would be the understatement of the year.
The only reason I'm giving this a 3/10 is due to Madison Bailey's (also known for her role in Outerbanks) performance as she genuinely tried to work with what she given and made the film bearable to watch to the end, she is literally the only saving grace of this entire film.
Antonia Gentry (Summer) is in dire need of an acting coach, her performance in this film and in general as an actor is stiff and she literally offers us the audience nothing. To quote the one and only Patti Lupone 'she can't act her way out of a paper bag'. The film's killer was predictable and one could tell who it was from a mile away so it left nothing wonder about. I'm not certain why Netflix opted to rip off 'totally killer' but they failed miserably and offered nothing new to the table.
